I investigated the issue using the nexus file you sent me, and it
turned out that the errors occurred in cases where we need to process
a response from the uBio web services, and the response does not
contain an NCBI identifier. I fixed this as per code revision 133,
which should appear on the web site the next time we reload our
server.

There is unfortunately very little we can do about this. The issue is
caused by the discrepancy between the uBio web site output and that of
its web services: we know certain names exist on the uBio website but
we can't get to them because they aren't being produced in a way that
our server can process.

I believe we have addressed the issues you have encountered - to the
extent that we have control over them - thanks to the supporting
information (input file, stack trace) you have already provided. Your
feedback is what we need to improve the TreeBASE web site, so if
anything else comes up don't hesitate to contact us.
